Making a Zoomer

from WinCustomize Forums
Hello
I would like to make a animated zoomer and Iam looking to use the icon that
is used with the program that it belongs with. I have look at the making objects animation
tutoral and theres no imformation that I can see for somethings.
I need to do first resize the icon so
there are three sizes not sure how to do that.
And the instructions want the 3 images to go into a source image and I just
dont know how thats done.
Are there more instructions that I have not found?
Thank you for your time.

Yes for DesktopX the makeing an object
tutorial is the one I was talking about
when it said "Animating odjects is incrediby simple.Animated objects,are
madeup of frames,and the image for each
frame is incorporated into the source
image" So what I need to know is how
to make the source image?
Also I do not have Corel Draw,is there
a way I can just resize the program icon
or is Corel Draw a must have program
to do resizeing.
Thank You for the links to the Corel Draw
and PiantShop paxx.
